OH, WOW!!! Nice Italian porn!!!

I also lust after those sexy lines and Italian jugs, but I had to come to my senses when it came down to parts and service availability. Scarcely anything in the Pacific NW and ZIP in Nevada - and Nevada is a great place to open the throttle and hang on! ;)

Yeps, parts availability would be big issue I think....aw shit, I gotta get this Italain lust thing outta my head! Guy still hasn't sold it and mentioned he was open to any offer...geez he was only asking $4200 to begin with :o Its a 2001...

No, I can,t do it. I can't do it....maybe $3000 offer....naw....

Then again I'll check out Garnet's note re: large Guzzi dealer in Thunder Bay...only about 1400kms away...ha ha.

Maybe another GS...damn I loved that bike...maybe the little 650 better suited for this old body.

I had an F650, pre 2000, the carburretted one. Virtually no problems, heard lots of horror stories about the first few years of the fuel injected model.
Bullet proof Rotax engine. Nice bike.
